As we move closer to winter, every single fall walk, is being cherished. Savored. Knowing the days of wearing a heavier coat, hat, gloves, and flannel lined pants are at hand. This walk was a few days back. It was glorious in its' goldenness. I think that's a word.
On my way back to the car, a boat with eight women rowing passed by on the river. They glided along the smooth water in perfect synchrony. It was a thing of beauty. They made it look effortless. I wanted to be on the team. But just for a few minutes. It's fun to imagine oneself in all sorts of situations, understanding of course that we only picture the good parts of it and know that nothing is ever as perfect/easy as it may seem. But it feels nice to close your eyes for a bit and put yourself in an alternate reality ... sometimes.
Terrific photos. I will have to see if I can find trees with those circular 'frames'.
